“If Tim Hassall were alive in the 19th century, he would ride the American plains upon a robust stallion, heeding not to the sharpest of dust storms, the thirstiest of deserts, nor the most spartan of sheriffs. He would be a Wanted Man, his face posted upon every saloon door west of the Mississippi: A man who speaks with such spirit, such truth, such madness…But never with a gun. Nay, an Outlaw with a guitar.”
